Southfork

Southfork was formed in Stockholm, Sweden in 1997 during jam sessions between friends Gunnar Lööf and Sebastian Sippola. The project was initially called Bulldozer and the first songs that came out of this collaboration were Man Made of Stone and Space Revolution. Soon bass player Anders Fästader joined the line-up and the group took its present name. Shortly thereafter the line up was completed as Henrik Bergqvist joined the band.
The debut album "Southfork S/T" was released in August 1999.
The follow-up album. "Straight Ahead" was recorded and mixed in beginning of 2000 at Sunlight Studio by legendary producer and engineer Tomas Skogsberg. For this session Tomas Thorberg joined the band and replaced Anders Fästader on bass. On several occasions during the years leading up to 2007 the members recorded new material. Some of the songs resulting from these sessions can be heard on the In Brackets album, released in February 2018.
In 2013, Gunnar Lööf and Sebastian Sippola started the recording of Southfork’s third album, Through a Dark Lens, by laying down the drum tracks in a rehearsal room at Fryshuset. In 2016, Southfork began to rehearse again for the first time in nearly 15 years. Peter Kahm, a long-time friend of the members, took on the role as bass player in the band. Through a Dark Lens was finally released just before Christmas 2017.
